First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at The Emmes Group.
Data Manager
It took a while to get updates on the position's status, schedule the interview, and find out if they were still interested. There was a lot of waiting, and it took about 2 months from the first contact to receiving a job offer. The interviews with the teams went well overall. It was good that I spoke with several different teams, as even if one team wasn't a perfect match, another might align better with my interests. I met with 3 different groups, but it wasn't too much; each group had 2 people. The questions didn't repeat from previous interviews, which was a positive.
- What is your understanding of our organization?
- What motivates your interest in working with us?
- Could you explain the reasons for leaving your previous job?
Data Manager
Interviewed with two projects. Brief q&a session about experience and background. Interviewers want to know--basically--if you can read and click a mouse. For this particular position, not much else matters. If you sound reasonably smart and don't fall asleep you'll probably be fine, if you've gotten this far. If hired, the project that needs you most will pick you. This has nothing to do with your resume or your skills, they are simply trying to fill much jobs because turnover is so high.
- Will you commit to working here for over a year?
Proposal Manager
The recruiter reached out pretty fast after I applied. That was the only good thing. The interview itself was rough. The recruiter seemed annoyed and not friendly, like they didn't want to talk to me. They kept asking similar questions in different ways and made me explain things repeatedly, which felt like an interrogation. The salary offered was also really low, below market rate, even though I'm already earning the same at my current job. I didn't get an offer, but honestly, the way the recruiter acted and the low pay meant it wasn't a good fit anyway.
- Can you walk me through your typical daily responsibilities, beginning with your earliest listed role on your resume?
- Could you outline your process for developing proposals?
